Finished Another 4.84mi Interval Training, Run Today

Another indoor interval run, not because of the cold but because I wanted the traction to hit the fast interval pace targets.

My goal for this week is to ensure that I get all 4 runs in, though looking ahead revealed that my Saturday run is a fitness level test run instead of a long run.

    Final Flight Leg and Arriving in Sierra Leone

    We got on our flight to Paris. It was nice to have most of us fairly close together on the flight. We had a short time in Paris at the airport. Got some coffee recharged electronic device and took a chance to get to know each other better. Mike likes to be the jokester of the group. I don’t think any of us got much sleep in on the flight from Paris to Freetown. Dawn beat me at a game of checkers on the in flight media system.

    DNF 14 Miles, Winter Won Today

    Some days you have a hard run, then there are some days where your it’s just brutal. Today the deep coat of fresh snow got the better of me. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus I was even doing my best just stick with my training plan running pace of 11:01/mi, but that wasn’t enough to get me through it. After 10 miles I just need to rest, which was only 2.5 miles after I had started up again running with the Hope Water team for maybe a mile before we parted ways. It’s tough having a day like to day knowing that in 2 weeks I’m supposed to be running a marathon (26.2 miles for those that don’t know).
